I know you will be surprise to read my email Please dont be skeptical to reply me. My name is Cpt Kate Carr Lee Carr Lee. I am a member of the US ARMY medical team deployed to Iraq because of the current ISIS problems. I discovered trunk boxes containing American dollar bills. I have deposited two of these boxes with a security company here in Iraq. Am looking for a trust worthy individual who will assist me to receive the funds in his country before l will come over and join the person. Please, I want this to be between you and me since I am still in the service. To prove my sincerity, you are not sending me any money because most of these scams are all about sending money.

Oy. Once again, someone is seeking to separate people from their money by offering money. The United Nations does not donate money to random individuals, but that does not keep spammers from sharing it. And people still fall for it regularly. The lure of free money in any economy trumps critical thinking at times.

You have been selected as one the beneficiries to receive the sum of $5,000 from the United Nation. This is as part of the ongoing annual monetary donation disbursed by the United Nations to selected lucky individuals from the 36 member state of the United Nations. While some beneficiaries of this gesture receives the sum of $1,000 some are much more luckier to receive as much as $50,000 depending on which group the recipient was picked from. The United Nations each year disbursed well over $100,000,000 to different individual beneficiaries across the governing States of the United Nations. The motive of this donation is to provide financial empowerment to enable beneficiaries meet their immediate family and economic needs.It also provide an enterprises that will boost their economic and consumption activities and help reduce their vulnerability and widespread poverty. It also aimed to improve the health of their families,and/or take on new activities that will enhance their standard of living. The United Nations has successfully empowered more than 20,000 selected beneficiaries across the world since 2010. All the lucky beneficiaries were selected randomly through email balloting from over one million emails extracted from the the web. All payment has been approved to be disbursed to the different beneficiaries through a cashier cheque. To receive your check,please be advised to contact the payment processing agent,Mr Mark Adams immediately on markadams63@hotmail.com for further detailing. Sincerely, Ms.Agnes Spensar Public Relation officer United Nations Organization(UNO) New York, NY 10017, United States

When the UN comes out and states that these types of messages are fraudulent, you’d think the scammers would try something different. It’s shameful, pathetic, and scummy.

If you telecommute, you may have to send copies of your identification to your new employer. Hopefully before you take this step, you’ve done the research, been interviewed, and have a firm offer of employment or a contact. If someone like “Andrew Okai” asks for you identification so you can split ill-gotten gains, don’t do it. This type of offer is not legitimate in any way and it’s illegal.

Don’t send anyone a scan of your passport, Social Security card, or any other identification unless you know who you’re dealing with. And even then, make sure it’s an entity with a legitimate and verifiable history. Be safe!

Yesterday I shared a fake lead from Fuller Carter and made a note of his laziness in not proofreading his message. Herrod Carney apparently learned from Carter or maybe is the same scammer using a different name. Tsk, tsk. Sloppy work is just sloppy work, even if it is is a scam.

Notice that the message is almost identical to the one I shared yesterday? The sender and position titles are different and while part-time is mentioned in the message heading, only full-time is referenced within the message. It’s another example of a scammer copying and pasting script with minor changes. Learn to spot these scams and share when you find them.
